For many years Michelin tyres have been the benchmark by which all other tyres are measured, whether it be in car tyres, van tyres, truck or agricultural. Dedicated to innovation, Michelin's engineers do not leave anything unchecked when they build their tyres and because of this Michelin are well known for their superb grip and their impressive resistance to the highest of temperatures.

With their impressive motorsport history ranging from Formula 1, Le Mans, WRC Rally and numerous other series cups their technical knowhow is second to none. Michelin have been at the forefront in developing the longest lasting tyres, tyres that give the best fuel economy and yet always maintain the highest levels of customer safety.

The original Primacy tyre, now replace by the Primacy HP and more recently the Primacy 3, it still out performs many competitor tyres in longevity, fuel saving and handling.

Rolling Resistance(A-G)

F Grade – Not a very fuel efficient tyre – could be up to 6% worse than a grade A tyre. However there may in some cases be a good reason why the rolling resistance is higher, for example where tyres are specifically designed for more grip, such as sports car tyres or winter tyres.

Wet Grip(A-G)

B Grade – Nearly the best quality tyres to stop in the wet, stopping only 3m more than a grade A tyre but on average 15m shorter than a car on grade G tyres (on a wet road when braking from 50mph – testing according to regulation EC1222/2009)
